When you’re dealing with stage 4 lung cancer, the good news is hard to come by, but today we have some. M went for his MRI yesterday with Dr. L and there was no evidence of the tumors that got zapped with the Gamma Knife and no evidence of new ones growing! He doesn’t have to go back for another MRI until mid December.
Of course, in our new reality it seems as though there is no good news without a bit of bad to keep our feet on the ground. The side effects of chemo are still kicking his ass… so much so that when I left for work this morning I honestly wondered if that was the last time I would see him alive. Needless to say, waiting for him to reply to my morning text was nerve-wracking.
